New to stream Friday: Jessica Chastain’s Nashville mystery ‘Heartland’ on Netflix and ‘The End of Oak Street’ on HBO Max
Chastain plays a reclusive country star hunting for her missing niece. Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor lead a family whose whole street vanishes into the unknown. Both arrive Nov. 13.
Two new movies start streaming at home Friday, Nov. 13, according to Netflix and Warner Bros.: a country-music murder mystery starring Oscar winner Jessica Chastain, and a science-fiction family survival story starring Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor. Neither is a new theatrical release, so neither is part of Thursday’s Opening This Week movie list.
‘Heartland’ (Netflix, Friday, Nov. 13)
The story: A former country music legend, Misty Jones (Chastain), comes out of hiding in Nashville to find out what happened to her missing niece, a rising country singer, Netflix says.
Who is in it: Netflix lists Garrett Hedlund, Ross Lynch, Jennifer Nettles, John Hawkes and country singer Carter Faith, who plays the niece. Shana Feste writes and directs. Netflix rates it R and lists a running time of 1 hour 54 minutes.
Why it is notable: Chastain does her own singing, Netflix says, as she did in her Oscar-winning role as Tammy Faye Bakker in “The Eyes of Tammy Faye.” The film is Feste’s return to Nashville 16 years after she made “Country Strong” (2010), which also starred Hedlund.
How to watch: Netflix’s U.S. plans start at $8.99 a month with ads (checked Nov. 12 on Netflix’s help page).
‘The End of Oak Street’ (HBO Max, Friday, Nov. 13)
The story: After a mysterious event in space rips their suburban street out of its neighborhood and drops it somewhere unknown, the Platt family must stick together to survive, according to Warner Bros.
Who is in it: Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor star with Maisy Stella and Christian Convery. David Robert Mitchell wrote and directed it, and J.J. Abrams is among the producers, Warner Bros. says.
Why it is notable: This Warner Bros. Pictures film makes its worldwide streaming debut only on HBO Max, the company says. It also airs on the HBO cable channel Saturday, Nov. 14, at 5 p.m. Pacific time (8 p.m. Eastern).
